The 2015 ABA Tour schedule

The Australian Bodyboard Association (ABA) has released the schedule for the 2015 ABA Tour.

The 2015 ABA Tour will be run in four stages. The peak management body for bodyboarding across Australia believes that the success of last year's wedgy venues should be considered.

Therefore, the official Australian pro bodyboarding circuit will return to Mandurah, Duranbah, Knights and Mystics in wintertime.

"The tour has four major new developments this year. Following our successful first year we felt the time was right to expand our activities a little more," reveals ABA.

"We can confirm that we will be running a Pro Junior, a Women's Pro and a Drop-Knee division this year, as well as the Men's Pro division. We will also be running training and mentoring sessions for youth interested in bodyboarding in selected locations."

The newly-created Pro Junior division is open to all bodyboarders from 16 years to 21 years, belonging to a local club. The Women's competition will run in all locations, and Drop-Knee participants will surf in, at least, three locations dependent on the number of submissions.
